Trouble Opening/Tranferring to iDVD

Hi -
I created a project in iMovie 5.0.2 (on my iMac G5, using 10.4.5) but, when I hit the button to tranfer it to iDVD to finish and burn it, iDVD 5.0.1 started to open a previous project and then just hangs... probably because that previous project was deleted after I burned the DVD (all that remins is something in Documents... and when I click on that, I get a list of files that iDVD can't find, because they've been deleted).
Can anyone tell me how to clean out the old files so iDVD opens the current project, not the old one? Thanks very much for your help.
Shelly

Hi Shelly
No but I can tell You how I would do.
- Close iMovie
- Start a new iDVD project
- select a nice theme
- now locate Your movie project ICON.
- Drop this just inside the edge of the theme window
- Do all extras - You like as add music, new background photo or other things.
- Ready to burn.
I never use the - go to iDVD from within iMovie - only problems.
Yours Bengt W

  • Trouble opening up old iDVD projects after upgrading

    Forgive me if this has been discussed but I took a quick look through the messages and I didn't find what I needed.
    I have some old iDVD projects that do not open under iDVD 6.01 (yes, I have the update.) It is as if my old themes (specifically "Baby Blue") have been erased. Is there some way to download them from the Apple site?
    Also, if I may, I want to pick a nit about iDVD. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it is wrong for the program to force you to use a pre-defined theme, even if it is customizable to the point of non-recognizition. If you somehow loose the old template or move the file to a new machine with no old templates, you're screwed unless you want to go through all the work of redoing your project.
    Thanks.
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Many people have had troubles with older projects opening in iDVD 6...including my one left-over project that was finished.
    This is one reason you should finish a project, create a disk image, save the disk image, before "upgrading."
    If you somehow loose the old template or move the file to a new machine with no old templates, you're screwed unless you want to go through all the work of redoing your project.
    If you creat an Archive of the project, it should contain everything you need.

  • Trouble opening pdf's - I have received several pdf's from a friend via e-mail (Thunderbird). Some of them open just fine but others give me the message: "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."

    Trouble opening pdf's - I have received several pdf's from a friend via e-mail (Thunderbird). Some of them open just fine but others give me the message: "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." My friend made sure that the files in question opened without issue on his computer (a PC). Further, I was able to open one of these "damaged" files on my Android phone, but I cannot open them on the Macbook Air. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Having Trouble Opening TIFF Files

    I'm having trouble opening TIFF files into Camera Raw. I have checked all my settings in Adobe Bridge and everything seems to be saying that TIFF files should open in Camera Raw when I click on then int and then into photoshop when finished editing in camera raw.
    I'm trying to open 32 bit HDR images saved as a TIFF file into Camera Raw, and there seems to be nothing I can do to get them there. I have tried everything I can think of. When I right click on it (cmd click I'm on a mac) the option to open in camera Raw isn't there. I have tried clicking and dragging the image into Photoshop to try and force it maybe to open into Camera Raw, and I have opened photoshop and tried opeing it up from mini Bridge. In mini bridge I have the option to open the image into Camera Raw when I click this nothing happens.
    I'm not sure what else to try I'm on CS6 and Camera Raw 7.0 .

    Alright I'll try that thanks!

    It might be that you need to update camera raw to version 8.3 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop or bridge.
    (i don't remember exactly in which version of acr that was added, but probably after version 7.0)

  • Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw Update for Photoshop CS5. I have a pc.

    Please Help? Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw update. I have a pc.

    If the camera is fairly new then the version of ACR you have with CS5 won't be able to read those file. You'll need to upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop or use Lightroom 5.
    Once a new version of Photoshop comes out Adobe does not support updating ACR from the older version of PS.

    Trouble opening the free photoshop and illustrator trial downloads, please help!

    Dear Michael,
    In response to your questions, please see below;
    What OS? OS X 10.8.2
    What happens? When i click on the ''AdobePatchInstaller'' i get this message, ''Update Failed, Updates could not be applied. This patch is not applicable for you. Please check for updates from the Help menu in your product to see a list of latest updates available. If the problem persists, contact customer support for further assistance.
    Any error messages? No
    Did you have previous versions of the software on your system? No
    Is the trouble with the download or the installation of the software? I am not sure but i think it may be the download. It shows that the download was complete and icon appears on the desktop.                                                                                I plan to buy the ''Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium'' but i wanted to try it first via the free trials, especially Photoshop and Illustrator. So please let me know what i need to do.

  • Trouble opening pdf files on version 9.4...

    Hi, I recently updated (10/7/10) my Adobe from 9.34 to 9.4 and now I'm having trouble opening my files that were working fine with 9.34.. I read the other post but the problem still seems to occur for my mac..the error message I am getting is..
    Adobe Reader could not open 'maher39767_0324639767_02.11_chapter11.spdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    I reinstalled Adobe and I'm still getting the problem...
    Please help.

    Does this happen with any pdf or this particular pdf ? If it happens with this pdf only then may be the pdf is not properly downloaded or may be damaged.

  • I updated to Mavericks and a bunch of my info deleted.  I tried opening a previous iDVD I made, but when I click on it, it says to look for themes.  How do I get my movie to work?  Thanks.

    I updated to Mavericks and a bunch of my info deleted.  I tried opening a previous iDVD I made, but when I click on it, it says to look for themes.  How do I get my movie to work?  Thanks.

    Did you do an erase and install of Mavericks?  If not look in the HD/Library/Application Support folder for an iDVD folder.  There should be a Themes folder in it. If it's not there look in your Home/Library/Applications Suport folder for the iDVD folder.
    NOTE: In Mavericks, 10.9,  the Home Library is invisible so go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring up this window:
    Select Show Library Folder.  Now you can check to see if the iDVD folder in there.
    If you find the iDVD folder launch iDVD, go to its Advanced preference pane and point iDVD to the Themes folder:
    If you can't find the Themes folder you'll need to reinstall iDVD from the source you installed it from originally, i.e. the disks that came with your Mac or an iLife 09 or 11 disk.

    David. Australia

    Hi
    Just thinking.
    • Where did You store Your iDVD project - on external hard disk ? FORMATTED AS ?
    MUST be Mac OS Extended (HFS)
    • Does Your original Movie projects still exist too and stored on same type of hard disk (HFS-formatted)
    • Was it saved as a "DiskImage" too ? - If so how does this Play ?

  • Trouble opening downloaded apps

    I'm having trouble opening newly downloaded apps on my macbook pro.  I can log into my account on here (obviously, seeing as I posted this) with the same password, but when I go to open my app, if I have shut down my computer between downloading and opening it, I get a window that says I bought the app on a different computer and need to verify use of it on my computer.  This is quite frustrating because I downloaded the app from this computer straight onto this computer - I don't own any other apple products for this to even be possible.  I know I'm not signed into any other computers because when I got this computer for school I created a new apple account and haven't used it anywhere but on this computer.  I try to type in my password, which I know works because I can sign into iTunes and clearly I signed onto here, yet when i type in the correct password, it tells me my password is incorrect and that I need to contact customer service. What is the problem here?

    Hi,
    If the App Store is open click Store > Sign Out from the menu bar.
    Now launch iTunes. From the menu bar (top of your screen) click Store > Authorize This Computer.
    Once that's done, quit iTunes, launch the App Store. Try opening the apps.
    If you still have problems, install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    It's ok to do this even though you are already running 10.6.8. The combo reinstalls the App Store for you and may help.
    If that still didn't help, move the files in bold print you see here to the Trash:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    ~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
    /Library/Preferences/System Configuration/Network.interfaces.plist
    Restart your Mac. Try opening the apps.
    The first three set of files can be found in your Home folder. ~ (Tilde) character represents the Home folder library.
    The Network.interfaces.plist is in the root library.
